Yes, I agree that ISTjs are definitely not the robotic stereotype some people see of them... I have an ISTj best friend and she is absolutely hilarious and very upbeat and "sparkling" as she said, with me. With other people she can come across as bitchy/cold but they just don't see the real her.

That first guy definitely reminds me of real ISTjs and their facial expressions.. it's adorable. I always try to imagine myself getting along with them IRL and yes, I can see it with this guy. What I love about ISTjs is that fact that they are assertive, reliable, steady.. etc. but they are totally not stiff either. They know what they want and how to get it.. and plus, they are apt to laugh at almost anything I say, which makes me super happy. I love to see them cracking a smile and it just lights up their face. They definitely share Beta humour.. I've noticed that a lot of ISTjs can go on and on just laughing about something stupid that you wouldn't think they'd like..

agree with you on this. i find quite a few of them to be hilarious. stiff & robotic doesn't describe a lot of ISTjs i know and i'm more inclined to agree with those gulenko descriptions where they talk about them being "the life of the party" and such things.

Really ? I thought as recently as earlier today how much I really like his music even though it could be seen as a bit lame and outdated. I think he is one of very few musicians whose concert I could enjoy from start to finish. I am a bit surprised about ISTj for him, I have never really thought about what type he could be but ISTj kind of seem like it.

Emma Thompson - she's got the softest little weak face. Almost annoyingly so. I am not one bit drawn to her facial features, never have been. In Ti-dominants I see the calm structure and I'm drawn to it.

I think ISTj must be one of the worst types for acting. No Fe, repressed Fi, and Ne as a POLR. I doubt there are that many out there. Non actors I'd say Hillary Clinton is an ISTj as is Condolleezza Rice.

I think this dude is a ISTj - Richard Armitage - he plays Guy of Gisborne in the latest TV remake of Robin Hood...though I only mentioned him because I thought people might find him attractive...*ahem*

Re: Celebrity ISTjs

When asked what he would change about the world of poker, Negreanu says "the negative image," adding that he would love "for society to see that it can be a healthy profession: Get rid of all the bad apples, the cheats, the badmouths, the hot tempered, etc. If that happens, I can see poker being accepted more readily by mainstream society in the near futurete]

This guy looks too optomoistic and not at all sullen. Not the edgey seriousness of an istj. even when he's being serious he doesn't have that. and he's also clearly exhibiting extroverted feeling which an istj is hardcore private about doing. i would never be interested in this guy. to me he looks like a punk. and also...the quote above to me is way move a conscious Introverted Thinking & Extroveted Intuiting that would belong to the ISTP & ENFP and not the more withdrawn and discreet ENFJ ISTJ pair. ISTJs would frown upon gambling and dislike waste and inefficiency, in my opinion.

I don't think Negreanu is ISTj; he's far too chatty, gregarious, and perky. Though ISTjs typify the notion of a "poker face," Negreanu isn't that kind of player. He uses social skills to throw his opponents instead of calculating silence (as was alluded to earlier). He's likely some sort of extroverted perceiving type.
A clear ISTj I can think of is Dick Cheney (shivers).

I think hillary clinton is an INTP and bill an ESFP and Condi Rice is an evil ISFP.

Not a chance in hell. You wouldn't catch most betas involved in nascar in my opinion...its way to lame and its for geezers and rednecks. this guy looks extroverted to me and if anything is an ESTJ but youd expect an ISTP in this position in life. A lot of sloppy typing going on, but I guess its the only way to figure things out.

He has nothing to do with Nascar. He's a businessman. He restores cars for extraordinarily wealthy people. You take a look at a photo, decide he's a redneck, no so little about him to think he's associated with Nascar, and then accuse others around here of sloppy typing. It's laughable.

It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.

Also, what is up with this assumption that no Betas would be into Nascar? That is complete bullshit. I'm sure there are people of every type on the planet who are into Nascar. And there are geezers and rednecks of every type too, for that matter.

But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
